I love the moto at the end





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Excellent, and sounds good too.

Just take it very easy to start with. You can easily break traction with the V8. I speak from experience! You dont want a winter rebuild do you.

I bet you cant stop grinning. Just wait for the summer.

Well done.






1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Best Regards
